• Clearly written • Includes no more than three unique errors of grammar • Includes no more than three unique errors in writing mechanics
Paper is one page, excluding references and title page
One page paper. It does have to be in APA format looking for a title page and I am looking for a reference page to go along with this, but that's not part of the one-page paper. You need to have one-page of written words double-space with the information. So describes the intended brochure audience. Who is the drug metaphor? It could be pediatric drug. But you don't necessarily write a brochure for the child, right? You're going to write the drug for the parent. Describes intended use of the brochure, includes the name, date, drug class, and a reference page, APA format. And then here I have it highlighted to scholarly primary sources within the last five years. Since the drug can't be more than five years old.
